Revered, Immovable One! Holder of the wonderful and profound truth, King of Surangama, the rarest in the world,You purge our delusions lasting countless life times So we may attain the Dharma-body without taking eons.

To repay the kindness shown me by the Buddha,I offer my deep conviction to serve myriad worlds:May I attain full realization, and, as a Dharma-king,Return to liberate beings as numerous as Ganges’ sands.

I humbly implore the World Honored One to witness this vow:I’ll take the lead to enter this murky realm of five turbidities,Even if one sentient being has not yet attained Buddhahood, I will never enter nirvana.

Great in valor and in power! Great Compassionate One!Help me discover and remove the subtlest of my delusions,So I may attain supreme enlightenment soon,And turn everywhere into a temple for awakening.
